191. Should you weigh yourself post-workout?


Listen Later

In this episode, JK shares his perspective on the implications of weighing oneself immediately after a workout.


He presents three main reasons to challenge this practice: the misleading nature of water weight fluctuations, the effects of muscle inflammation post-weightlifting, and the inconsistency of weighing conditions.


He shares the importance of a proper mindset regarding weight measurement and suggests a more effective approach to tracking weight.
